The problem with the FSM gospel is that it's a "religious" book of sorts and religion cannot be taught in schools. To get around that, the religious groups created "science" books to teach creationism (intelligent design). Unfortunately some of these, like "Of Pandas and People", have made their way into schools which are forced to teach intelligent design alongside evolution.

This is why I think we need an FSM "science" book for teachers who are forced to teach ID but believe it is utter nonsense. It will be an alternate textbook for "teaching" ID.

Not bad, but it should be a back-up plan. We should try to stop ID from even getting into schools.

I have had to read "The Design of Life: Discovering Signs of Intelligence in Biological Systems," for my biology class. It's total garbage and my teacher hates teaching it. On my last test all of the answers were, C-An Intelligent Creator did it. (i am not joking) For all of the questions there was also the scientifically excepted answers. Since I put down those answers i got an F. My teacher gave me extra credit that was worth the same as the test though.

Writing a "scientific" text book for FSM-ism is an awesome idea. I'm going to start working on one and my teacher will probably teach it.

You've filled his house with things of goldWhile handing crumbs to the old and poorAnd then you preach about being pureAnd wonder why we're laughingIn your old way you're trying to find usBut we can't follow what's behind usToo much blind faith, it will blind usThough sometimes it's a blessing

But I remember when I still embraced youA little prayer would ease my mind'Til I saw that you hide from the misery outside so I left you behind -Steppenwolf, From Here to There Eventually
